Intended impact

​

The project is building a strategic, multi-stakeholder platform which will include all those involved in creating and providing healthy, climate-resilient care settings. The project is generating impact along three main pathways:

​​

1. Building construction practitioners responsible for the design and delivery of healthy care homes are being provided with improved climate change adaptation design and decision making tools. This is enabling the development of best practice guidance provided by professional organisations and associations.

2. Policymakers are being provided with evidence-based recommendations to help revise regulations and policies relating to thermal comfort and energy efficiency in care settings.

3. Care home managers, frontline staff and residents are being provided with best practice guidelines for the best operation of care environments in a warming climate.
